Get Away Petsitters was formed in 2002 by Trish and Tim Belue to help other pet owners get away without the guilt and worry of leaving their pets at home. Also it is our way of getting our “fix” without adopting anymore pets. Our pack includes two dogs, Jack and Forest, two cats, Spice and Moey, and one “catdog”, our latest rescue, Miller. Get Away Petsitters provides professional pet sitting services in areas of Hoover, Pelham and Helena.
Boy Jack and Forest can. These two could put the "Big Dig" to shame. Careful in our backyard cause you may be one step away from China. Can you say bath?
Welcome to the Get Away Petsitters Blog. The purpose of this blog is to share our petsitting adventures with you. We hope to keep this updated but may be slack in doing so due to how busy we are in our "spare time".
Our services range from basis pet care, like putting out fresh food and water to administering medications, to exercising your pet. If your dog likes to take walks, we are happy to take them out for some exercise and a change of scenery. If your cat or dog has a favorite toy or game they like to play, we are there for that too. While you are on vacation, we treat this as if it is their vacation too.
A typical visit is usually $20 a visit and $25 on holidays. This can vary depending on the needs of your pet(s) and the number of pets in your pack. If your pet has medicine that need to be administered, multiple litter boxes that need attention, “accidents” that need to be cleaned, or watering of plants, our fee may vary. This all depends on the amount of time that is needed to provide proper attention and care to your pet and the other details of the job. We try to always keep our fee at $20/visit but we find that with multiple pet owners more time is needed to take care of all of all responsibilities.
